Metaphoria

is a labor of love produced without pecuniary interest with the hope that it provokes reflection and discussion and that debate even though it may be passionate at times is healthy for democracy and for freedom.

Even if no new articles have been written/posted recently, the website continues as an archive of our thoughts and writings thanks to the generosity of Lee Vanderlaan who provides the webspace. Thank you Lee.

"If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what a people will submit to, and you have found out the exact amount of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them; and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress." - Frederick Douglass
